For a house to become a home, it must have a certain energy, and Vastu states that the person living in a house, comes under the influence of that energy. It is crucial to understand the connection between good vibes in the home and the art of Vastu.

1. Vastu Direction for Entrance

As per Vastu tips for new home, the house's main entrance is not only the entry point of the family but also for energy and vibes. The main entry point of your house should face the north, east, or northeast direction. It must be built in a manner that when you step out, you face the north, east, or northeast direction. Before buying or building a house, make sure the plan focuses on these particular directions.

Entrance door located in the North, East or North East of the house is considered the most auspicious direction. The entrance door size should always be larger than the other doors of the house. This is because the sun rises in the east and is said to bring in positive energy and light into the household. The other acceptable direction that the house entrance can face is towards the North East. 

2. Vastu for Living Room

The living room is not only the place where the family usually gather together, but it is also the area where the other people come into the house. This area is powerful because it can draw a lot of outside attention to the house. However, the energy carried by the outsiders would also enter your house, so you have to make sure that you are doing all you can to draw only on their positive spirits.

Building Living room according to Vastu

• Seating: When sitting in the living room, the owner of the house has to face either the north or the east.

• The northeast face: The east and the north face of the house are of high quality. They can attract good vibrations from this (north-east) corner. Having the living room in the northeast would make sure that people are more harmonious and there is less discord in the house.

• Electrical appliances: House construction in Vastu considers the south to be the direction of fire, so this is the direction where all the electronics have to be kept. If you put your telephones, TVs, etc. in the southwest direction, it will definitely be beneficial for you.

• Flooring: In Vastu for the living room, it is considered better for the living room to be at a lower level than the rest of the house since it can provide a good sense to the rest of the family, when compared to the guests, especially.

• Doors: The doors in the living room are not restricted by numbers; they are restricted by the places where they can be kept. You can keep your door in the northern direction of your house, for this is the direction that has all the magnetic control. This is what will help people to be attracted to your house- a huge benefit for you!

3. Bedroom Vastu

There are specific rules that you have to follow for maintaining the optimal situation of Vastu in the bedroom. The bedroom is a very intimate spot and this is the spot that needs a lot of attention when one is trying to improve its harmony with nature.

Building Bedroom according to Vastu

Door:

The door to the bedroom has to open at least up to ninety degrees. This is significant of the fact that you are allowing maximum opportunities into your life. You are also supposed to make sure that the bedroom door is made of a solid and strong material so that your private and intimate life is protected from the outer world and the interference as well.

Sleep pointing to the south:

When you sleep, your head should point to the south. The north provides the body with magnetic energy, which will excite the blood.

Mirrors:

Do not keep a mirror on the northern side of the bedroom. This will make sure that you are always thinking about the troubles and it will also make sure that your troubles are being projected back at you. Move the mirror to another wall or you just keep the mirror covered when you are sleeping in the night.

Sharp corners:

IN the bedroom, Vastu dictates that you avoid sleeping directly in line with any sharp corners. Sharp corners would take away the calm and serenity from your life and make you much more tensed. This will not make the intimacy situation any better. Neither will it improve your chances of becoming successful.
